I am not an attorney so I can't say if it is legal or not, but I have seen 
several like it before.  There are several counties and cities here in the 
Carolinas that have similar language.

Subject: [heur] [Geowanking] Phrase from County GIS License

 

Here is a phrase from the GIS Data License from one of my local counties. It 
seems pretty gutsy. What do you guys think? Is it legal to put this type of 
restriction on publicly funded data?

 

"GIS Product is not to be used for any purpose other than that indicated on the 
application. The

applicant shall not disclose, lease, sell, distribute, make, transfer, or 
assign the GIS product or

engage in any other transaction which has the effect of transferring the right 
to use for all or part of

the GIS Product without prior written consent of the County of San Joaquin 
Community

Development Department."
